[RC] horse sizes....etc - Barb PeckI pretty much agree with Truman on this one. How athletic and quick they are (to move or bend laterally) has to do with conformation (joint articulation/angles) and the type of muscle tissue/fiber they have.. Power comes from the rear engine and then size does matter. I used to think it had to do with weight and the center of gravity.. untill many horses proved that theory wrong. That's why a Fjiord can't jump the moon like the the eventers bred for performance.
